Abstract

The topic for our panel discussion is potential policy responses to exchange rate challenges. The main challenge from my perspective, and I would say for both Australia and New Zealand since the global financial crisis (GFC), has arisen from periods of significant upward pressure on our exchange rates. A high exchange rate puts pressure on export industries, particularly manufacturers, encourages imports and puts downward pressure on price inflation.
